An IPO application does not guarantee a profit. Investors should examine the company's financial statements, project progress, debt obligations, electricity generation prospects, revenue expectations and other available disclosures before making an investment decision.

Hydropower companies can face construction delays, financing challenges, seasonal variations in electricity generation and regulatory risks. The listing price of a share may also be below its issue price.
